Join the 500 Communities Program at the Cohousing Conference this May in Nashville.
New to the 500 Communities Program?
What does the Program offer?
Launched in September 2015 and now engaged in its 2nd year training, this year-long Program is for passionate entrepreneurs who want to contribute to the goal of building the next 500 communities while working collaboratively and supporting each other.
Through this Program, Katie is formalizing what she's been doing for years informally: train other collaborators to grow the ability of CoHousing Solutions to meet the expanding need for professional support in creating new communities.
Our first-year graduate class is already hard at work on projects around the country, and the second-year class is deep into training up through August 2017.
We've chosen a diverse geography of trainees. Click the map above to learn more.
Does the
500 Communities vision excite you?
After a planned brief hiatus, the Program will be recruiting new applicants for the Fall 2018 Class. We'd love to have you on the map as a trainee engaged with us during that year. Application details will be released in early 2018, so bookmark our
web pages and keep an eye on your inbox for further info and deadlines.
In the meantime...
If you're ready and motivated to launch the community-building process,
don't hold back on moving your group forward! Consider hiring CoHousing Solutions for consulting. We offer a wide-range of services and best practice templates to groups; from site search to budgeting to marketing strategies.
Partnering with our firm, your community benefits from systems and processes we have refined over the last 30 years with many different communities. We can save you time, money and headaches with a more comprehensive relationship, working on a regular basis with your community and local professionals.
We'll be at the Cohousing Conference in Nashville!
Interested in learning more about the Program, while mingling with movers & shakers in the cohousing movement and growing your cohousing knowledge? There's no better place to be than in Nashville this May 19-21.
We'll offer a 500 Communities Gathering Sunday, May 20 from 10:30am-12pm.
Explore if this Program might be for you with this introduction, and ask any burning questions you have. As a bonus, you'll have a chance to meet both graduates and current trainees in the Program - ask them your questions and get a sense of their experience and the benefits they've accrued through the training.
It's never too early to launch your plans for a new and exciting career in cohousing!
